Q.243

The American musician and song-writer Bob Dylan turned 70 in May 2011, and was the subject of a TIME Magazine list. Two in fact, one for his best songs and one for his worst songs. 'Rainy Day Women #12 & 35' was voted his worst ever song, while 'Like a Rolling Stone' was voted his best song.

'Like a Rolling Stone' had been named the best ever song (not just by Dylan but of all time) on several occasions. One magazine in particular put it on top of their 500 Greatest Songs of All Time in 2004. The TIME article says "they might be a little biased, but we're confident in saying it's the best thing Bob Dylan has ever done."

Which magazine?
